Just Dance
Name of Maker: Renee Fleuranges-Valdes
Just Dance - I took a workshop based on Anna Faustino's Weaving technique. I love the way the color's work off of each other. I then did some thread play on the three women and appliqued them on the woven background. I outline quilted the women and stitched in the ditch between the woven edges. Tulle is used in this technique over the woven fabric, before the applique is added to secure all the raw edges.
Purple Pockets
Name of Maker: karabu
Purple Pockets - The purple pockets are 5 inches square, the yellow and green blocks are 10 inches, and the finished size is 36 inches. I made it for my kiddo, and she enjoys it more that I'd hoped. She has small hard plastic toys she always wants to sleep with, but they get lost in the bed. Now they get tucked into their pocket for the night right next to her, and can be found again in the morning! Yea!
Seaside Stitches
Name of Maker: Sandy Shammas
Seaside Stitches - This company is no longer in business and I would love to be able to find additional patterns in order to teach this class. It is foundation pieced but using the freezer paper method has taken the yuk out of it. No paper to peel!
Un-named
Name of Maker: Sandy Stephens
Un-named - Classic Storm at Sea Pattern. Free Motion quilted on Pfaff Grand Quilter and Inspira Frame. I love the illusion of the circles and stars, but didn't realise that there were over 800 points to match until I started putting it together!
Earthy Baby Bargello
Name of Maker: Jean Sheeler
Earthy Baby Bargello - My friend is expecting her first child and decided not to find out the sex of the child. She is currently drawn to the colour blue, so I included it along with her favourite earthy tones. All fabric is from my stash, excepting the border.
Baby Quilt

Baby Quilt - This friend is due 2 weeks after the other one. So a quick 6 inch square quilt was in order. She knows that it is a boy, so I was able to incorporate a lot of blue. this was made entirely from my stash.
Pursuit of Happiness
Name of Maker: Janet Hartje
Pursuit of Happiness - This was my final project for a class I took at Quilt University taught by Myrna Giesbrecht. They no longer have this class so I feel fortunate to have taken it when I did. It was a class called Points and Curves. I had been trying to learn this on my own but she helped me take it to a new level.
My son
Name of Maker: Janet Hartje
My son - This is a postcard of my son's laughing eyes! It always bring me joy to see him smiling at me from my design wall.
Emma's Joy
Name of Maker: Eric Sciotto
Emma's Joy - This is a baby-gift for my friend Kim. When my son was born, Kim made him the most beautiful hand-knit sweater and hat! So, I wanted to make a hand-made gift... I'm really happy with how this pillow turned out.... it was a lesson in "happy accidents" too.... that 3-d center pinwheel "patch" is covering a mistake... I was working on putting an ornate "E" in the center, but had problems.... I kind of love this solution....
